Only downside is that you better get ready for the "land scape" shock...Lubbock is flatter than Paris Hilton, unlike Springfield that has curves and hills that remind me of Vida Guerra

Hope that helps...
well that sucks. im also a sprotbike rider, im mainly into twisties. I think that springfield has a pretty good bar scene, but the good women are few and far between. i feel like i have met all the girls in this town.
Cowboys up here has been in town for over 7 years, and still one of the busiest bars in springfield.

I agree...the Springfield bar scene is a good one, but Lubbock's is much better. Plus...there's many women to go around...lol! I did run into a bike crew a couple times while in Springfield...do you ride with those guys? FYI - the only hills you will run into in this area are over-passes...lol

Theres got to be a bike group, because i saw a pretty good group of them going down 4th the other night. Yeah that bar is pretty far from the depot district but it should attract a pretty good crowd if it is what you say its gonna be. Oh and that location is about 2 or 3 miles from TSP(Texas Speed and Performance).

There is a good number of bikes that gather weekly and cruise (at least when the weather cooperates).
